OUR Track Club went to EUGENE Oregon for a Track meet back in April . We were able to live & breath the life of TRACK TOWN USA . While we were there, we spent some time honouring STEVE PREFONTAINE "PRE " an Olympic Legend from Oregon . Here is my "PRE " tribute chair that will be at our Track Fundraiser on Saturday . In celebration of the upcoming Olympics in London, we wish every athlete success in the Summer Olympic !!

I'm glad we got to meet, albeit briefly at the Vintage Market. I really enjoy following your blog and am truly inspired by your projects. I received the Sunshine Award from Claudine and would love to pass it on to you. I will totally NOT be offended if you do nothing other than read this comment!! If you are interested in passing it to other bloggers you can find the info on my blog. Thanks!!

Yes , He was the Hero of my Running Days !! It was great to go to the Rock and pay tribute to him with my Daughters Track team . Have a great DAy !
he was a hero of my Hubby...during his running days. My Husband ran during the 70's and kept track of his times so close...thanks for a great tribute
That is cute and it made me chuckle to think when I sit on it, that I AM giving it my best!!!

Thanks for your comments . Kelley
I love how you used the sticky letters. I have never tried those. Thanks for linking up to Hot Fun in the Summertime. Have a wonderful week.
Hello
You will need to get the letters off fairly quickly or they are difficult to get off . Have a great night , Kelley
